I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Ham and Scalloped Potato Casserole

Made this a few days after Easter but just got around to posting it now. Don't worry I haven't had leftover ham hanging around this long!


Ingredients:

2 - 3 cups cooked ham, roughly chopped
3 large potatoes (Russet, Yukon Gold) thinly sliced
1 medium sweet potato, thinly sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
2 cups milk
1 tsp salt
pinch black pepper
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, swiss)
paprika

Butter a 9" baking dish and layer the potatoes and onions, but not the sweet potato. Next layer the ham on top.


Final layer is the sweet potato.

Now make the sauce...melt butter in a saucepan and add the flour. Cook 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook 1 minute more. Add the salt and pepper and pour into the casserole.


Top with cheese and a few sprinkles of paprika and bake at 375 F for 1 hour uncovered or until beautifully golden. The potatoes should be tender, if not pop it back in the oven for a few more minutes.


Add a quick kale salad to the plate and you have a complete meal!

Serves 4
